Description

The theme is: HEROISM AND/OR VILLAINY

In case you missed the explanation or event the last time around...

"Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls; I'm sure many of you have wished to work with someone new, especially someone well known and respected, or maybe just someone who's gotten your attention and appreciation of their work. Perhaps you aren't well known but would like to meet and collaborate with some people, show what you got? Are you just looking for something a little different? While not all of these can be promised, it would be nice to be able to do some of these, yes? I give you, McBacon Jam."



Here are the basics this time around:
  • Any engine is fine.
  • No restrictions on resources used. Also, as last time, and as it stands, commissioning an outsider is fine so long as it isn't that much work and doesn't effect the team dynamic.
  • This event will run from (August)8/19/2015 to (September)9/18/2015
  • I will announce a theme on the 19st; that is when your team can officially begin, as last time.
  • Team sizes must be a minimum of 2 with a maximum of 4 (remember, this is about collaborations). Solo entries will not be accepted for this.
  • If you already have a team decided, be sure all members join said team.
  • If you don't have a team, but want to join one, make a team with just you in it. If someone joins your team, make sure everyone in said team talks about it too.
  • Will be using a "pool" for people who want to try things in a more "random" fashion in place of what was reserves.
  • Team setups cannot be the exact same as they were in McBacon Jam #1. Each new jam means different team arrangements!
  • If bizarre circumstances occur or if you're having some team issues, let me know and I will take care of things accordingly.




Badges!
Only 1 badge will be handed out, depending on the circumstances:
McBacon Jam 2: MBJ2 Support Hero: 10 MS
  • Given to people who help me out with this event but don't join a team and submit a game.

McBacon Jam 2: MBJ2 Builder Hero: 25 MS
  • Given to people on a team that end up making something reasonably playable and meets the theme (or if I'm feeling nice, can at least make a really good gamepage, have an amazing video and images showing it off, and give me the impression that they'll keep working on it)

McBacon Jam 2: MBJ2 Cake Hero: 40 MS
  • Having everything done on the 9th (old deadline) will earn you this





Special thanks to:
Marimo for the logo for this McBacon Jam.
Archeia_Nessiah for helping me decide the theme, and countless other things.
Liberty for post event stuff.

I'm torn. I'm near the end of a big project that I've vowed to finish before the end of the year. Then again, a contest could give me a break that might help me. Then again again, it might cause me to miss my deadline on the big project.

I'm playing this time, too.

So... yeah, I'm not sure how the team creation thing will work.

On another note...



Edit:

This time I'd like to perhaps help write a story. I want to do something super wordy and introspective. Maybe RPG battles will be too stereotypical. Let's make something weird. Anyone can ask me out. Just bring like, some roses or something.

Bless you guys.

Edit #2:

I also can do, maybe, like puzzles and game mechanics. But I'm a bit of a perfectionist. Also...

I'm in the same boat as Unity... I'd love to join, but I don't wanna risk losing momentum on my current project. It's a shame, it's been a while since I've had a good game jam!

Anyway, good luck, everybody /o/

I feel bored. How odd.

Hi! I'm available for teams, though I'm quite new to the engine, I can, um... Have ideas, I suppose. Not very helpful, I suppose. Anyway, I will not be able to help as much during the last two days, so, keep that in mind. Yeah.

For your information folks; expect to see some description updates right up to the start fo the event; there's still some work to be done for this.
I really want to be on a team for this. Collaborating is super fun and I want to learn from others and try getting more involved. I have experience mapping/eventing and doing level design. I should probably steer clear of writing though.

I was thinking of perhaps exploring the idea of a rouge-like type of game. Where you slowly build up a base or something. Just an idea.

SUCH EXCITED MUCH GOOD VERY EVENT

also i don't know i do stuff
i do art, kinda weird but not too weird gameplay mechanics, i complain and i write angst. also i complain

I also am notably hard to communicate with so you might take working with me as a challenge. LOL though last McBacon Jam taught me a lot in that regard so I'm taking it as a challenge myself to be as communicative as possible! :D

idk leshave fun

Darn... I REALLY wanted to work with unity. ;_;

I've wanted to work with you, too! I'll tell you what, Luchi. If you want to work with me, then I'll enter ^_^
I don't think I'll have time for much more than doing the graphics/visuals/pixels/whateveryouwantotcallit this time around, so if anyone would be okay with that, I'm game.

Got room for one more?

I wanted to participate in the last jam, but I just didn't have time. I think I can do it this time, though I'm in the same boat as unity.
Randomise me. HOWEVER, I'll probably be best as a support only - I've not much free time this month, so if any team just wants a 4th member to help out with minor stuff, I'll be happy to help.

Depending on my work load, I might be able to offer more but we'll see how that goes.

Want me to add you to random then for the time being?
You can probably add me to the random pool as well. It's for the best.
